Selected poems

Walt Whitman ; Harold Bloom, editor

American poets project

Early notebook fragments of "Song of myself", Song of myself, "I wander all night in my vision" [The Sleepers], Crossing Brooklyn Ferry, Out of the cradle endlessly rocking, I ebb'd with the ocean of life, When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom'd, Poets to come, To the garden the world, From pent-up aching rivers, I sing the body electric, A, woman waits for me, Spontaneous me, Ages and ages returning at intervals, O hymen! O hymenee!, I am he that aches with love, Facing West from Claifornia's shores, As Adam early in the morning, In paths untrodden, Scented herbage of my breast, Whoever you are holding me now in hand, Of the terrible doubt of appearances, City of orgies, I saw in Louisiana a live-oak growing, On the beach at night, The, world below the brine, A, hand-mirror, The, dalliance of the eagles, As toilsome I wander'd Virginia's woods, The, wound-dresser, Reconciliation, There was a child went forth, Chanting the square deific, A, noiseless patient spider, O living always, always dying, The, last invocation, A, clear midnight, Good-by my fancy, When the full-grown poet came, Good-bye my fancy!, "Respondez! Respondez!"
